Chapter 190 Rules (Second update, please vote for me)
After the lunch break, the team continued to set off.
Before Shen Chu, we arrived at today’s destination.
The Holy Spirit will be stationed here for three days, and there will be a siege tomorrow.
The place where the princes and elder brothers are placed is still in several auxiliary buildings on the East Road.
The courtyard here is not an independent courtyard from south to north.
In order to save bricks and tiles, it is a row house structure with a ridge.
Each row is three yards.
As Shu Shu walked along, she felt something was wrong.
When they arrived at the door of the courtyard, the other party bowed and said politely: "This is the courtyard. Please come in, Fujin..."
Shu Shu didn't feel happy. Instead, she lowered her face, looked at the steward and said, "Who arranged the yard? According to what rules?"
The steward was nervous: "It was the order from the steward himself..."
"General Manager... OK, I'll take note of this Fujin..."
Shu Shu sneered, turned and left.
There are three courtyards in a row.
There is an order between elder and younger, and distinction between superior and inferior.
This third courtyard should be reserved for the seventh elder brother.
No matter in terms of rank or title, he is the seventh prince.
In the past, whether they were staying in the Princess's Mansion or the Prince of Mongolia's Mansion, or traveling in the palace, the houses were allocated in this way.
Yesterday, Brother Ninth took charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Today, the rules are out of order?
The blame will definitely fall on Brother Jiu.
These disgusting little tricks are really hateful.
Shu Shu could imagine that even if he was held accountable, the manager would definitely have something to say.
Why is the courtyard on the west side close to the steward's office, and close to the holy driver on the middle road, so it's easy to answer questions and so on.
If I had been more careful, I would have said hello to Qi Age Brother and Qi Fujin, so I would be sorry.
In the end, it seemed like making a fuss out of a molehill between myself and Brother Jiu.
Shu Shu did not hide her displeasure and happened to bump into the eldest brother and the third brother.
"Brothers and sisters..."
The eldest brother stopped and saw that Shu Shu was annoyed. He glanced at the manager behind him and said in a deep voice, "What do you do, but how can you be disrespectful to Jiu Fujin?"
The steward was so frightened that he immediately knelt down: "I don't dare, I don't dare... I am a scribe who works as a clerk and does odd jobs around the manager..."
Shu Shu couldn't talk directly about the house, otherwise it would be exposed and it would make Qi Fujin lose face.
She said: "There is an empty yard. I guess the manager wants to repair it, but what's the use of talking to me about it? Let Master Jiu talk to the manager later..."
The third elder brother looked Shu Shu up and down, pondering over Tian's words.
Lao Jiu has a loose temper and does not love power.
This Dong E family is different.
Being ambitious is pushing her husband forward.
With her as the connection, can the Dong E family still favor themselves?
My own Fujin is a little smart, but it seems he is not as smart as this cousin...
After Shu Shu finished speaking, she didn't stay too long and left with the maids.
The eldest brother is not that easy to fool.
When the third elder brother entered the middle courtyard, the eldest elder brother went to the west courtyard.
Not only has it been cleaned, but it should have been repaired recently. The floor tiles are new and the window paper is also snow-white.
The eldest brother understood the reason, sneered, turned and left.
Shu Shu is already in the second row.
As expected, someone came in and out of the courtyard to the east of the second row, and they were people from Qifuxin.
Qi Fujin has been placed here.
At this moment, the people from the 10th Prince and the 13th Prince also arrived.
Seeing Shu Shu standing at the entrance of the courtyard in the middle, the people in charge on both sides hesitated.
Shu Shu pointed to the back: "Go and see if there is a cleared yard behind. If there is, Shisan will move over; if not, the two brothers will squeeze in..."
For more than a month, Shu Shu spent a lot of time taking care of the 10th and 13th elder brothers, and both of them became familiar with each other.
He immediately responded and looked behind him.
The third row also has a tidy yard.
Thirteenth Brother's people went over to take care of it.
Shu Shu took the people and entered the middle courtyard.
She looked ugly, and everyone who followed her was cautious.
Shu Shu did not rush into the room, but turned around and said to everyone: "I am acting in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there must have been a lot of people coming to fawn over me recently. The more so, the more cautious you are... As always, don't be flattered by others.
, just become arrogant... You must know that those who can come forward to take care of things have a lot of rank. They are officials... and they are the emperor's officials..."
Speaking of this, her eyes passed over everyone one by one: "My colleagues can make faces, but you can't. Keep your identity, abide by the rules, and be respectful... If anyone hears a few words of flattery, he will
When I get older, I break the rules and lose the face of you and me, then I can’t stay here..."
I don’t know how many people will be like today who look like they are flattering, but are actually digging holes.
If this fence is not tightened, there will be loopholes everywhere.
This is the so-called sugar-coated bullet.
Looking at the candy, there is a deadly murderous intention inside.
Everyone knelt down and responded respectfully.
Xiaosong and Xiaoyu were fine. They stayed by Shushu's side every day and didn't go out, and they interacted with few people.
Xiaotang, Walnut, and Sun Jin were outsiders, and they knew a lot of people, so they all took it seriously.
Shu Shu's eyes fell on Walnut: "Go and tell that uncle of yours that in the future our rules will follow the Qiye's and we must not go past the two county princes... Otherwise, it will not give us face, but make us lose face."
…”
Walnut listened carefully and went out to spread the message.
Shu Shu then told Sun Jin: "Go and find out what's going on with this business manager..."
Sun Jin also left quickly.
Shu Shu then entered the house and watched several girls packing their luggage.
Xiaoyu set up the incense burner.
Xiao Song saw Shu Shu's bow bag and hesitated: "Fu Jin, can you take this out..."
Shu Shu's hands were itchy: "Take it out..."
I'll go back and ask Ninth Brother. If we can spare some time, the two of us can hang out nearby.
Xiaotang held the fruit plate with a stern look on his face. He stepped forward and whispered: "Fu Jin, I'm wrong...I shouldn't have done this..."
Shu Shu glanced at her and said, "You just want to think about what it would be like if someone called you that in front of Aunt Xianglan?"
Xiaotang's face turned red and her head drooped: "I'm so ashamed..."
Aunt is an honorific title, but the only ones who accepted it were the eldest maids around the concubines.
"As long as you know, remember what I just said, it's still business as usual... stick to the rules, and no one else can make mistakes..."
Shu Shu said.
Xiaotang nodded vigorously.
Shu Shu knew that she had always been obedient and had not been frivolous in the past two days, so she revealed the matter.
This is just the beginning...
When the government opens, people outside will become more mixed and chaotic. Let’s all grow up together...
However, thinking about the flattery of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the quarrels of the 10th and 13th elder brothers, Shu Shu told Xiaotang: "I will stay here for three days, and take advantage of this time to patch up street vegetables and pick up vegetables."
What Master Ten and Master Thirteen like to eat..."
There was nothing to add to the dish before.
Now I just said that following the example of Seventh Brother, it is not easy to add more dishes all the time.
Those who can be self-sufficient are better off preparing themselves.
Xiaotang agreed and was thinking about what to add.
*
In front of the emperor.
Brother Jiu held the booklet, no longer reluctant to part with it before.
He thinks what Shu Shu said makes sense, that is, the pattern must be big.
He has already acted as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so his layout should not only take into account two people, but should stand on a high level and consider the benefits of the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs.
When the minister on duty came down, the dining table had not been set yet. It was time for him to have some free time, so Brother Jiu handed over his plan with both hands.
Kangxi looked through it with an unclear expression.
"Khan Ama, my son was thinking of making pocket money before. Even if it doesn't last, he can earn it for three or four years... If the Ministry of Internal Affairs is really in charge, it may be a long-term business..."
Brother Jiu looked at Kangxi's face and did not dare to speak loudly, so he spoke carefully.
Kangxi glanced at him: "According to your plan, the profit of tens of thousands of taels a year is just pocket money? I didn't expect you to be quite wealthy..."
Brother Jiu sneered and said: "It's not a serious main business, who expects this to make a fortune? Just think of this, and take advantage of it if you think it is advantageous..."
Kangxi snorted coldly, feeling moved in his heart.
Prince Taiji of Mongolia received the title of conferment from the imperial court, and the imperial court also required a salary.
There are various salary levels depending on the title.
This is a huge expense.
In addition to the salary, there are also rewards for the annual Zhengdan and Wanshou Festivals.
Also platinum brocade.
It seems that one person is not rewarded much, but there are so many princes in Mongolia.
The salary cannot be touched, what if the reward is replaced by medicine?
Kangxi was somewhat moved, but then denied it.
Not all Mongolian princes were wealthy. Some had a hard time with poor pastures and were loyal to the court.
If the silver reward twice a year is cut off, there is no doubt that it will cause resentment.
But those who are wealthy...
Kangxi remembered the two golden belt orders from Brother Nine.
"Scholar farmers, industry and commerce are the last industry, and there is no reason for the court to interfere... Especially in a place like Mongolia, if you focus on profits and promote merchant affairs, businessmen will flock to it... At that time, it will be easy to cause trouble and cause local instability..."
Kangxi closed the plan, handed it back, shook his head and said.
Brother Ninth frowned a little.
I have given up my profits, and Khan Ama won’t give in, so what should I do next?
He had never thought of this possibility before.
After all, he already acted as an agent for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so he thought he could make the final decision on such a small matter.
Besides, this is a good thing about open source.
"You can't get involved with the Lifanyuan, and you can't do it in the name of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You can figure out the rest by yourself..."
Kangxi spoke again, pondering and said: "As for the profit, just hand over 80%..."
Brother Ninth's eyes widened: "Khan Ama, you can't do it in the name of the imperial court, and you can't get involved with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Isn't it just your son's own business? Why do you have to pay 80% of the profit?"
Isn't this bullying?
He and Shu Shu gave up this because they wanted to exchange for political achievements.
Kangxi glanced at him and said: "You should bring this medicine to the imperial pharmacy first... I will ask the imperial doctor to take a look at it, and it will be designated as an imperial medicine. I will give it to you during this trip... You can sell it for two taels of silver later..."
The ninth elder brother understood and looked at Kangxi with admiration in his eyes: "Khan Amma also knows economics?!"
Kangxi chuckled and said, "You claim to have a good understanding of economics after reading a few idle books. I have read ten times and a hundred times as many books as you, so how come you can't understand it?"
